Bible: Isaiah 5:21-23; 56:9-12
5:21 Those who think they are wise are as good as dead, 1
those who think they possess understanding. 2
5:22 Those who are champions 3 at drinking wine are as good as dead, 4
who display great courage when mixing strong drinks.
5:23 They pronounce the guilty innocent for a payoff,
they ignore the just cause of the innocent. 5
1:9 God said, “Let the water under the sky be gathered to one place 1 and let dry ground appear.” 2 It was so. 1:10 God called the dry ground “land” 3 and the gathered waters he called “seas.” God saw that it was good.
1:11 God said, “Let the land produce vegetation: 4 plants yielding seeds according to their kinds, 5 and 6 trees bearing fruit with seed in it according to their kinds.” It was so. 1:12 The land produced vegetation – plants yielding seeds according to their kinds, and trees bearing fruit with seed in it according to their kinds. God saw that it was good.
